Our Bodies, Ourselves

The ground-breaking book about women’s health and sexuality, ‘Our Bodies, Ourselves’ was written by the nonprofit organization ‘Our Bodies Ourselves’ (formerly known as the Boston Women’s Health Book Collective). It was first published in 1970 and covers a lot of ground, including menopause, birth control, pregnancy, violence, and sexual health. The book celebrates sexual independence and challenges social standards by encouraging women to actively engage with their bodies.
